We were so pleased with the care our rather old, rather shy cat received from Crispin. And, to my amazement-the kitty area was as clean as I left it. Crispin, both kitty and I thank you!

We've relied on Alyssa for years to watch our 2 dogs while we are traveling. She has always been so reliable, kind, and communicative with us. Our furbabies love her, and we were able to get out of town knowing our animals would be comfortable at home with someone who cares. Walking, feeding, playing, keeping company... whatever you need, Alyssa knows animals and can help!

It’s readily apparent within moments of meeting Meagan how much of an animal lover she is. From the smallest (and sassiest) of pups to the big, slobbery dogs, Meagan is great with them all. She is always checking in on my Lily and has been so gentle as Lily came from a very traumatic situation and is slowly learning to trust people again. Meagan’s patience and calm demeanor gives me such peace of mind when I have to leave Lily. And to me, that’s invaluable.

Matilda is the kind of girl who will ask to pet every stranger's dog she meets, no matter how sandy, stinky, big or small she really just loves the animals. Plus, the fact she’s been able to take care of my disastrous duo consisting of a hyper energetic yapping Pomeranian Yorkie, and my cute but conniving Queensland heeler, your dogs could not be in better hands.

Brandi was quick to respond, very professional, and easy to work with. She assured me everything was going well with real-time updates of time spent with my dog. She also sent pictures. I like that Brandi is active and gets the dogs out together as a pack and goes hiking or on outings. I appreciate the socialization it allows my dog in a controlled setting, with a knowledgeable pack leader. It's a pleasure to have her care for my dog Ridge.

About: My motto is that it’s my responsibility to make sure that each dog under my care is HAPPY and SAFE. Every day that I’m with your pup , I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it’s my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they’re used to at home . I’m a huge dog lover, so making pups as happy as can just come second nature for me ! Although I’ve been a lifelong dog lover, my experience with pups is much more far reaching than that. I’ve worked with dogs big and small and loved taken care of all of them equally It’s always great to chat with owners about what makes their pup tick ! Finally , I just love meeting new dogs! I like to get down on their level show them that I’m a welcome presence here to make friends, and I’m sure we’ll be best buddies in no time at all
